Jordan CP3.VI

This past season was by many accounts Chris Paul’s best yet, a lockout-compressed abbreviated regular season that saw the Los Angeles Clippers roughly flip their winning percentage compared to last season. ‘Lob City’ has a whole new outlook now that they’ve got an elite point guard running the show, and Paul’s sixth Jordan Brand signature sneaker will be there as the Clippers try to make good on their dark horse contender status. The Jordan CP3.VI seems a logical progression from both the CP3.V and based on what we’ve seen from the Melo M9, a diamond-latticed synthetic lowtop whose patterns stick with implying the kind of layering we saw from Carmelo’s latest. Three vibrant designs suggest more wild styles in the vein of ‘Jeckyll and Hyde’ to compliment the Clippers-colored PEs, this new trio being called the ‘Nitro Collection’ thanks to its explosive Atomic Green, Total Orange and Metallic Silver builds.
